I travel full time and thus eat out a lot. The portions in most restaurants have gone from large to huge to insane. Not to single them out, but just as an example, I ordered meatloaf at the Cheesecake Factory and the platter they brought would have made a meal for my wife, three girls and me. Add that to the "clean your plate" mantra mom drilled into us all and you have a recipe for obesity.
In the last year I've started going to the grocery store and pick up some yogurt, fish, veggies and fruit and keep it in the fridge at the hotel. I always choose hotels with a kitchen now. I've lost 40 pounds in the last year and a half, 230 to 190, and have about 20 more to go. I've also gone from spending an average of $200/week on meals to $30-40 / week
It's not that hard and I still eat the bacon and eggs at the free hotel breakfast nearly every morning and have a bag of Orville's full butter full fat nuclear popcorn every night.
